On November 14, from 11:30 AM–5:00 PM EST, Indigenize SNAC will host an edit-a-thon aimed at improving the discovery of Indigenous archival material that has been dispersed to multiple repositories. The event will also explore best practices around entities in SNAC for Indigenous, Native American, Alaskan Native, Native Hawaiian, or First Nations individuals and Nations, as well as for colonial actors and institutions whose records hold relevance for Indigenous researchers.

This edit-a-thon is the culminating event in a special series that seeks to Indigenize SNACSchool by modifying the standard SNACSchool programs and seeking participation and feedback from Indigenous individuals. EVERYONE, regardless of experience with archives, metadata and research, is welcome to attend any part of this series but only those who complete Part 1 and Part 2 will be able to edit SNAC records in real-time-during the final event! The Indigenize SNAC team may request your feedback following the event.
